You can take two paths.
After 155... ...DDP pics up with an all new series a few Special Missions, Declassified books a Stormshadow solo series, Americas ELite series etc. ...or IDW restarts the marvel series at 156. Both are ok in differant means. We also have the IDWverse which is completely differant than both. Each has is merits and problems. But all readable to varying degrees. |

Sparks, Breaker, and Dial-Tone all did coexist together. I can't imagine a unit such as GI Joe having only one person to a job. That was why I always get annoyed when I read people saying that a newer character "replaced" an older character. Dial-Tone replaced Breaker, Roadblock replaced Rock n Roll, Footloose replaced Grunt, etc. I see no reason that all these characters couldn't coexist together.

So I finished the original run and started reading the GI JOE ORDER OF BATTLE comic books. You probably already know they are just dossiers of characters. I thought it was pretty cool when I saw the page with Rocky Balboa but then I read the third issue and they retracted the whole Rocky thing... Sad. Lol. I honestly wonder if Rocky would have actually worked as a joe... Would have been interesting thats for sure

IMHO OP, now that you've read the entire Marvel run, pick up DDP's Snake Eyes: Declassified and especially G.I. Joe: Declassified. Then read the Marvel continuation starting with 155 1/2. The DDP stuff has its highs and lows, but it may confuse you. It's now considered an alternate timeline from the end of the original series, but it was intended to pick up where the Marvel run left off-7 years later.

Where / how did you acquire the whole run of comics..? I didn't read them back in the day either; but, would love to try and "catch up"...
I suppose a better question would be: is there a collection of these somewhere...maybe in book format..? |

All 155 issues have been "remastered" and collected by IDW in 15 volumes.
